Big money performance how much time goes on. Crazy money. actor Yuri Nikulin as Vasily

In which the actress has been serving for more than 50 years, staged a performance based on the play Alexander Ostrovsky "Mad Money"(I advise all fans of the work of the playwright Ostrovsky to visit).

Ostrovsky is relevant even a century and a half later, so the play looks in one breath.

Plot:

The heroine Lydia is young and ambitious, she is admired by the entire Moscow elite. She is used to living in a big way and is in search of the only one who would ensure her comfortable existence. Hearing about the fabulous wealth of a provincial entrepreneur, the beauty makes her choice, but makes a mistake in her calculations.

Directed by Anatoly Shuliev, a graduate of the directing department of the course of Rimas Tuminas. In the theater. Mayakovsky "Big Money" is the second performance of the young director.

The main character - Lydia Cheboksarova, who is accustomed to squandering her parents' money without looking back and not thinking about anything but her own pleasure, plays Polina Lazareva, the granddaughter of Svetlana Vladimirovna Nemolyaeva, which you can see, for example, in Talents and Admirers or All My Sons. Plays interesting, you certainly believe her. And looking around you notice young people and girls similar to her. Very indicative of the concept of her essence is their dialogue with her mother:

Nadezhda Antonovna (sniffing alcohol). Husband writes that he has money
no, that he himself needs thirty thousand, otherwise they will sell the estate; and the estate
this is the last one.
L and d and I. Very sorry! But you must admit, maman, that after all I could not
to know that you could take pity on me and not tell me about your ruin.
Nadezhda Ant o n o v n a. But anyway, you'd know later.
L and d and I. Why should I find out later? (Almost with tears.) After all, you
find the means to get out of this situation, because you will certainly find it, so
you can't stay. After all, we will not leave Moscow, we will not leave for the village; and in
Moscow, we cannot live like beggars! One way or another, you must arrange for nothing to change in our life. I have to get married this winter
make a good match. You are a mother, don't you know that? Can't you figure out, if you haven't already figured out how to live one winter without dropping
your dignity? You think you! Why are you telling me about
what I shouldn't know? You take away my peace, you take away
me of carelessness, which is the best ornament of a girl. You would think, maman, you are alone, and you would cry alone if you need to cry.

Other actors are very good too.

Alexey Dyakin in the role Savva Gennadich Vasilkov, a provincial entrepreneur, a man " new era", who believes that at present it is quite possible to get rich and is making certain efforts in this direction. Vasilkov in love is emotional, it may even seem stupid, but his mind does not completely leave him:

Vasilkov: So my heart noted; I suddenly fell in love
as a minor, fell in love to the point that he is ready to do stupid things. It’s good that I have a strong will and no matter how I get carried away, I won’t get out of the budget. Not my God! This strict subordination once to a certain budget has saved me more than once in my life.

Ostrovsky shows that the future belongs to such people, but do they have enough kindness and mercy, or is everything subordinated only to the goal of profit?

Vitaly Grebennikov in the role Ivan Petrovich Telyatev, a ruined nobleman, living from loan to loan, for which the debt hole is "crying". Grebennikov managed to create a charming image, on the one hand, of a jester, easily fluttering through life, on the other hand, as always, such a character understands life more deeply and has no illusions about himself and the world around him, but evaluates everything very soberly. From his own lips comes a phrase explaining the meaning of the title of the play:

T e l i a t e v. Now money has become smarter, everything to
business people go, not to us. And before the money was stupid. That's it
that's the kind of money you need.
L and d and I. Which?
T e l i a t e v. Rabid. So I got all the mad ones, no way
you can't keep it in your pocket. Do you know, I recently guessed why we have crazy money? Because we didn't make them ourselves. Hard money is smart money. They lie still. We beckon them to us, but they won't; they say: "We know what kind of money you need, we will not go to you." And no matter how you ask them, they will not go. What a shame, they don’t want to have acquaintances with us.

Konstantin Konstantinov in the role Egor Dmitritch Glumov, an intriguer and a lover of barbs is also good. This is such an "evil genius" play.

Alexander Andrienko as a baron Grigory Borisovich Kuchumov who tries to appear rich and generous, but in fact lives only on the money of his wife and relatives.

All three: Kuchumov, Glumov and Telyatev are one and the same, have no means and are trying in one way or another to get settled in life at someone's expense. They look after Cheboksarova a little, without any serious intentions.

And the last character of the play is a servant Gregory, performed Yuri Nikulin. He serves at Vasilkov's (in this there are some differences from the play) and is quite modern, like the owner. He masters the car and stands guard over the business interests of Savva Gennadich.

Summary. The performance is classic, suitable for family viewing (you can go with parents or teenage children), there are funny moments that make the viewer smile.

To the Anniversary of the national favorite - People's Artist RSFSR Svetlana Nemolyaeva, the Mayakovsky Theater releases a performance based on the play by Alexander Ostrovsky "Mad Money". It is curious that for the young director Anatoly Shuliev this is the first work on the main stage of the Mayakovsky Theater and the first serious appeal to the national classical dramaturgy. According to Shuliev, he had previously dealt with dramaturgy, in which there are absurd themes, in particular, we are talking about the production of "I was in the house and waiting ..." based on the play by J.-L. Lagarsa Shulyeva on small stage Lighthouses last season. The student of Rimas Tuminas - Shuliev received an excellent directing school, which is felt from the first minutes of watching his new performance. I am also pleased with the ability of the young director to create a single ensemble of actors on stage, where each of the actors plays classical play Ostrovsky, as it is laid down in the traditions - tasty, juicy, bright. The beautiful trinity of faces close to the Cheboksarovs' house - Telyatev, Kuchumov and Glumov - performed (in turn) by Vitaly Grebennikov, Alexander Andrienko and Konstantin Konstantinov - three completely different images, while rejoicing at the colors found by each actor. Each image is filled with irony and self-irony.

Anatoly Shuliev called his production of the play "Mad Money" a comedy of obsession. After all modern people sometimes obsessed with a thirst to get rich, to have material wealth. The heroes of Ostrovsky's play are also obsessed with this. The main character of the play Lidia Cheboksarova (the exact work of Polina Lazareva) - wants (but rather demands from life and fate) crazy money, wants everything in life to be easy and simple for her. According to People's Artist of the RSFSR Svetlana Nemolyaeva, at the time when she started her acting career people were much less interested material wealth, the basis was still a spiritual life. Today, Ostrovsky's play has become even more relevant and its appearance on the stage of Mayakovka is just in time. Nemolyaeva herself got the role of Nadezhda Antonovna Cheboksarova - mother main character. Performed by Nemolyaeva, the heroine is endowed with cunning, cunning, her main goal is the happiness of her own daughter, and for this, loving mother will go for all. The family duet of Svetlana Nemolyaeva and Polina Lazareva, who play mother and daughter, respectively, attracts attention. In the role of Savva Vasilkov - actor Alexei Dyakin, one of the leaders of his generation in the Mayakovka troupe. The actor, who has already given the audience a number of the brightest roles, for the third time in Mayakovka, he meets Ostrovsky's dramaturgy. Also, the viewer can see Dyakin in performances based on Ostrovsky's plays "In a Busy Place" and "Dowry".

"" - a performance based on the play by the classic of Russian literature A.N. Ostrovsky, which you can see in the repertoire of the Maly Theater. This is the story of Savva Vasilkov (his image on the stage of the Maly Theater is embodied by V. Nizovoy). Savva Vasilkov - a simple-minded, at first glance, young provincial; he falls in love with the cynical, spoiled beauty Lydia Cheboksarova (Svetlana Amanova), who simply cannot imagine herself outside of luxurious and expensive things. The rumor about Vasilkov's wealth brings Cheboksarova to the point that she not only pays her attention to the provincial guy, but even marries him. However, very soon the bride is disappointed in her choice, having discovered the stinginess of her husband. Those traits of his character that previously seemed ridiculous to her become hateful. Lydia, in desperation, turns to her former suitors, but they, who live in debt, caustically indicate ex-lover to her husband's house. “Not the rich one who has a lot of money, but the one who knows how to get it,” they seem to hint to Lydia.

The performance "Mad Money" at the Maly Theater perfectly demonstrates the provincial life of the Ostrovsky era, emphasized by poster pedestals, twisted fences, balloons and lanterns, curtains and couches, candlesticks and mirrors, flower vases, picturesque figurines, panels - and, of course, stylized costumes of characters. Yes, there are a lot of little things here, but their abundance does not distract attention from the performance, and the very reading of Ostrovsky looks fascinating and worthy.

What is "mad money"? This is money that does not linger in the wallet, money is "nimble", money is "fidgety". This means that the play "Mad Money" and (as, indeed, the rest of the works of the great classic) are still relevant today, at the dawn of the twenty-first century. Witty dialogues, fast-paced intrigue, gripping plot, heartfelt story and deep philosophy- all these features inherent in the work of the great master are brilliantly revealed by the creative team of the Maly Theater in one of his best productions. The main roles in the performance, in addition to Viktor Nizovy and Svetlana Amanova, are performed by Alevtina Evdokimova, Valery Babyatinsky and many others. famous actors Small Theatre. The director of the performance is V. Ivanov, Honored Art Worker of Russia.
